The first floor opens like the first page of a new chapter, with flexible spaces and durable concrete floors that invite gatherings, creativity, or a rustic-chic business concept. An eat-in kitchen with granite counters anchors the main level, offering a warm place to cook, connect, and dream. Upstairs, three bedrooms and two full baths provide comfortable living quarters, while the third floor - with three additional rooms already plumbed for a bathroom - feels like an attic full of possibilities. Think guest suites, studios, private retreats... the story is yours to write.
Below, the basement has been transformed into a woodworking shop, a reminder that this property has always been a place where hands-on work and imagination meet. With upgraded mechanicals throughout, the home is prepared to support both everyday living and entrepreneurial ambition.
What truly sets this property apart is the land itself. Bordering the 112-acre Drowned Lands Swamp Public Conservation Area, part of the Harlem Valley wetlands complex, the setting feels like a nature preserve all its own. Wildlife moves through the seasons here, and the landscape shifts in color and texture like a living backdrop. The acreage offers room for gardens, small livestock, or a homestead lifestyle.
Just minutes from the Dutchess County border, the location blends Columbia County's rural charm with Dutchess's vibrant towns, dining, and commuter access. Nearby favorites from the Ancram Center for the Arts and Hillrock Estate Distillery to Rudd Pond, Taconic State Park, and Dutch's Spirits add richness to daily life.
640 County Route 3 is more than a property. It's a place with history, heart, and room for reinvention.
